Mary Morine

Mary is a lifetime sewer and loves exploring what can be done with fabric and thread. Through her, many experiments her Treasure House Boxes sprang forth and she is able to express the depth and flexibility of the fabric and thread. Originally, the boxes started as smaller stuffed Christmas tree ornaments and they soon evolved into functional boxes.
Each box is assembled entirely with needle and thread using a multitude of different fabrics, trims and stitchery coordinated to achieve realistic results. The interior framework is "Lexan" a flexible plastic that she purchases in sheet form and cuts into the various shapes.
Mary has made over 8,000 houses in the last 30 years and they have found their way to all corners of the globe. Mary hopes that this special Treasure House Box brings as much enjoyment to you as it did to her creating it.
